INTERNET OF THINGS (IoT) For Carrier Service Provider

Used By

Service providers planning to take advantage of the efficiencies, cost savings and revenues associated with IoT implementation.

IoT analytics and visibility are keys to success

Service providers are in a unique position to lead the future of IoT. Those who are now transforming their network infrastructure, operational models and business processes to support IoT platforms, devices and traffic, will no doubt succeed. This involves careful examination of industry standards, technology, data center capacity, and network and infrastructure flexibility. Your IoT strategy must include complete network and service visibility and real-time, smart data for IoT analytics; both will enable you to guarantee service and a quality customer experience – no matter the device, service, application or network.

IoT opportunity comes with a price

Ericsson’s latest Mobility Report states that 1.5 billion IoT devices with cellular connections are expected by 2022. Visibility into the connectivity and communication between IoT devices and infrastructures is crucial to IoT success. While rapid adoption of IoT promises to deliver tremendous efficiencies, cost savings and revenues, it also places a great deal of pressure on service providers, whose networks will carry most of the traffic generated by IoT devices. IoT connectivity will link cars, homes, cities, manufacturing and agriculture, just to name a few. The opportunities are limitless; however, maintaining operational continuity will not only require low latency networking, but also the ability to coordinate devices, correlate real-time data and generate IoT analytics for fast response. This will present service providers with real challenges.
